# # Example mpv configuration file # # Warning: # # The commented example options usually do _not_ set the default values. Call # mpv with --list-options to see the default values for most options. There is # no builtin or example mpv.conf with all the defaults. # # # Configuration files are read system-wide from /usr/local/etc/mpv.conf # and per-user from ~/.config/mpv/mpv.conf, where per-user settings override # system-wide settings, all of which are overridden by the command line. # # Configuration file settings and the command line options use the same # underlying mechanisms. Most options can be put into the configuration file # by dropping the preceding '--'. See the man page for a complete list of # options. # # Lines starting with '#' are comments and are ignored. # # See the CONFIGURATION FILES section in the man page # for a detailed description of the syntax. # # Profiles should be placed at the bottom of the configuration file to ensure # that settings wanted as defaults are not restricted to specific profiles. # #################### # Default Profiles # #################### [high-quality] scale=ewa_lanczossharp cscale=ewa_lanczossharp hdr-contrast-recovery=0.30 allow-delayed-peak-detect=no deband=yes # scaler-lut-size=8 [fast] scale=bilinear cscale=bilinear dscale=bilinear dither=no correct-downscaling=no linear-downscaling=no sigmoid-upscaling=no hdr-compute-peak=no [default] scale=lanczos cscale=lanczos dscale=mitchell dither-depth=auto correct-downscaling=yes linear-downscaling=yes sigmoid-upscaling=yes hdr-compute-peak=yes ################## # video settings # ################## # Start in fullscreen mode by default. #fs=yes # force starting with centered window #geometry=50%:50% # don't allow a new window to have a size larger than 90% of the screen size #autofit-larger=90%x90% # Do not close the window on exit. #keep-open=yes # Do not wait with showing the video window until it has loaded.
